This page is where users suggest their ideas for [[Pikipedia:Poll|polls]], as well as comment on other poll ideas or vote on whether they like them or not. These decisions are for what polls should be asked on the wiki, not for what poll will be next. New poll ideas should start out in the "Ideas that need work" section, and once it's clear that the poll doesn't have problems and is ready to be asked, a staff member can move it to the "Ready ideas" section. Note that staff members selecting the next poll can choose ideas from either section.

** Why wouldn't it be possible to ask? Perhaps it can be rephrased to make it more subjective-sounding; that might work better.

*** ''Pikmin 4'' recontextualizes the question quite a bit. But I guess it would still be possible to ask. I don't think that wording would be an improvement; the idea behind the original wording is for people to imagine what their ideal ''Pikmin'' game would be like and how many areas it would have.

# (Nominator:) The latest poll proved that people prefer caves that return from Pikmin 2. Over 60% of users voted for Kingdom of Beasts, which is the 5th poll in Pikipedia’s 60 poll history to have 60% of voters agree on the same option. Although a good idea in theory, spending a year with polls that will get the result “the cave that’s based on Pikmin 2” isn’t very interesting (Which, by the way, tells me a lot about Pikmin 4’s game design). My criteria of a cave that’s inspired is simply looking at that cave’s Pikipedia article “See also” section and adding it to the list if it had a cave from Pikmin 2. However, I did manually remove [[Burrow of Beginnings]], [[Last-Frost Cavern]] and [[Drafty Gallery]] from the list, which were linked to the [[Emergence Cave]], Emergence Cave and [[Subterranean Complex]] respectively. Being the first cave of their respective games is not a good linking point, and I genuinely could not find any correlation between Last-Frost and Drafty with their Pikmin 2 supposed “counterparts”. Why are they even linked? &mdash; [[User:Aostrele|'''Aostrele''']]<sub>[[User talk:Aostrele|''(talk)'']]</sub> 8:20, January 10, 2025 (GMT)

* I think the options in this poll could be improved. Using "See also" sections is not a good way to make a list of similar caves, since these sections aren't always consistent in what kinds of articles they link to. ''Pikmin 4'' has several sublevels that are similar to sublevels in ''Pikmin 2''; for example, sublevel 1 of the [[Drafty Gallery]] has a similar layout to sublevel 2 of the [[White Flower Garden]]. But even if a cave has a sublevel that's similar to one in ''Pikmin 2'', that doesn't mean the entire cave is inspired by a ''Pikmin 2'' cave. In my opinion, the caves I'd include in this poll would be the [[Kingdom of Beasts]], the [[Engulfed Castle]], the [[Plunder Palace]], the [[Ultimate Testing Range]], and the [[Cavern for a King]], because the general themes of these caves are similar to ''Pikmin 2'' caves. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 19:23, January 13, 2025 (EST)
** Thought [[Cradle of the Beast]] definitely has the weakest list out of the 6 options, I do believe it is just strong enough to enter. Its walls are made out of bricks, which was the theme of the original [[Frontier Cavern]]. The main link is that the boss sublevel is eerily similar, comprising of a one-directional loop with [[Bulborb Larvae]] that eventually leads to an [[Empress Bulblax]] that gives birth that’s facing the other way. Even if it is a somewhat weak link, it’s still much better than the link between the [[Drafty Gallery]] and [[Subterranean Complex]]. I don’t really see the harm in including Cradle of the Beast, but a moderator may remove it if this is selected.

* Hm, I'm not too sure about these options. Three of them are pretty much the same option. I like the idea of choosing between something like multiplayer and content sharing, but the more I think about it, the more I don't think this will work well. Everyone will want to be able to play real-time multiplayer.

*** We've already seen story mode and both competitive and cooperative side modes, so I think those options should definitely stay. Stage creation and sharing has never been seen before, so it makes less sense to me to include that in the poll. The available options should be reflective of what we already have, as that's likely what the majority of people are wanting to play online.<br>I agree coming up with options is a little hard, but I think it makes the most sense to have each option be what we already see in-game, just online. The three modes throughout the series are story (which is sometimes multiplayer to varying degrees), challenge (which is sometimes multiplayer), and battle (always multiplayer), so I think these three should be the options, because this poll is, at least from what I gather, about hypothetically giving previous modes online capability. <span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif">[[User:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">Deeb1324354657</span>]] ([[User_talk:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">talk</span>]])</span> 12:12, July 6, 2025 (EDT)

# (Nominator:) Since we did Pikmin types, why not do Bulborbs? We dont have any polls around enemies (that I know of), so this can be cool and unique. The Bulborb is also as recognizable as the Pikmin themselves, and are part of the biggest family in the series ([[Grub-dog family|grub-dog]]). This also includes Bulblaxes and Bulbears, but we can get rid of them if there are too many options. I also think Bulborb Larvae are too similar to Dwarf Bulborbs (same with Dwarf Bulbears) even though they're technically grub-dogs. &mdash; '''[[User:CrazyCow|CrazyCow]]''' October 1, 2019

** I think anything that can be classified as a Bulborb to at least some people should be made an option, to encompass all opinions. This then brings the conundrum of lack of space, but perhaps we could combine similar options into singular entries. Maybe this would be a good list (just a prototype, as it could very likely use some edits):
*** Albino Dwarf/Dwarf/Red/Jumbo Bulborb
*** Hairy Bulborb
*** Dwarf Orange/Orange Bulborb
*** Whiptongue Bulborb
*** Bulborb Larva
*** Dwarf Bulbear/Spotty Bulbear
*** Dwarf Frosty/Frosty Bulborb
*** Empress Bulblax
*** Emperor/Sovereign Bulblax
*** Fiery Dwarf/Fiery Bulblax
*** Snow Bulborb (maybe this can be combined with the first entry due to its lack of almost any unique qualities)
*** Moldy Dwarf Bulborb
:: Like, this is pretty comprehensive, and is relatively concise (still pretty massive).

*** I don't like the idea of combining multiple Bulborb types into the same option. People could have pretty different opinions of the Dwarf Orange Bulborb and Orange Bulborb, for example. I think for this question to work we have to limit its scope. If it only included grub-dogs of around the same size as the basic Bulborb, it would include the (Red) Bulborb, Fiery Bulblax, Frosty Bulborb, Hairy Bulborb, Orange Bulborb, Spotty Bulbear, and Whiptongue Bulborb. I think this is a reasonable number of options. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 01:27, October 6, 2024 (EDT)

***** The other thing that needs to be decided is what order to put the options in. Should they be in alphabetical order, or the order they were introduced to the series? And should the basic Bulborb be called "Bulborb" or "Red Bulborb"? &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 17:16, October 6, 2024 (EDT)
****** I think introduction order is best, but that has a key flaw; ''Pikmin 2'' is nonlinear, so you could encounter either the Fiery Bulblax, Hairy Bulborb, or Orange Bulborb first - well, no, not necessarily; let me think. In ''Pikmin 2'', Orange Bulborbs are only found in caves that require Yellow Pikmin to access (or are in Wistful Wild), with the exception of the Snagret Hole, but that requires Blue Pikmin or the use of glitches. Blue Pikmin are behind an electric gate, so Snagret Hole therefore cannot be reached without Yellow Pikmin, or glitches, but I think it's safe to say the vast majority of people won't be using glitches on their first playthrough (we'd be looking at first playthroughs because that's when people would encounter them first, just for complete clarification). Then there's the issue of the Wistful Wild; they can be found there, and in two of the area's caves. I'm not sure if the debt can be paid off without using Yellows or Blues (and without using enemy corpses), but I'm fairly sure it can't be, as the vast, vast majority of the Perplexing Pool would be inaccessible, the non-tutorial part of the Valley of Repose would be inaccessible, and a fair amount of the Awakening Wood wouldn't be accessible (this is just my thoughts from some quick research and my memory, so I'm not 100% sure it's correct), which restricts the player from getting ''quite a lot'' of Pokos. Why do Yellow Pikmin matter here, you ask (you probably already know, you're the second-in-command on the most comprehensive Pikmin internet database to ever exist) - the Fiery Bulblax has to be fought (or at least seen, maybe there's a way to get past it without killing it but I don't recall that being possible sans-glitches) for Yellow Pikmin to be discovered, and Yellow Pikmin have to be discovered for Orange Bulborbs to be encountered (unless the player goes out of their way to grind enemies for hours so they can repay the debt). So it's essentially undeniable that the Fiery Bulblax will be found before the Orange Bulborb would be, as well as the Hairy Bulborb, as it is in caves that require Blues (or are in the Wistful Wild). So we can be certain that Fiery Bulblaxes are the first-encountered new-introduced Bulborb in ''Pikmin 2''. As for what goes next, it's not certain the player will encounter either one first, but Hairy Bulborbs require Yellows and Blues to be discovered, but Orange Bulborbs only require Yellows to be discovered (again, they can both be found in Wistful Wild, but this is much less likely and shouldn't really be taken into consideration), so I think Orange Bulborbs should go first. In summary: I believe the order should be (Red) Bulborb, Spotty Bulbear, Fiery Bulblax, Orange Bulborb, Hairy Bulborb, Whiptongue Bulborb, and Frosty Bulborb.<br>As for whether or not we should call it the "Red Bulborb" or the "Bulborb"... hmm. Both sides have good reasons for themselves; they are called Bulborbs in the most recent entry in the series, but just calling them Bulborbs would make them a tad less distinct from the other entries, which *could maybe* cause a bit of confusion. I don't know; I think the vast majority of people would know what we mean if we just say "Bulborb", especially since it's been officially called that for the last eleven years, and it's likely that those who've played the games where it wasn't called that would know the difference. "Red Bulborb" offers complete and utter eradication of any chance of misinterpretation, but "Bulborb" is more official and still makes perfect sense.<br>Additionally, maybe there can be an "Other" option, just so the people who'd prefer types that are left out can have something to pick? <span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif">[[User:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">Deeb1324354657</span>]] ([[User_talk:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">talk</span>]])</span> 18:40, October 6, 2024 (EDT)
******* Alternatively, we could just use Piklopedia order, which would put the ''Pikmin 2'' types in the order Hairy Bulborb, Orange Bulborb, and Fiery Bulblax. I also agree that using "Bulborb" instead of "Red Bulborb" is a better idea. I don't think there should be an "Other" option because it's better to limit the poll to just a few comparable types. Between the introduction order and the alphabetical order, I think the alphabetical order looks slightly better, but that's just my opinion. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 19:19, October 6, 2024 (EDT)
******** It seems to come down to subjectivity; I think it's nice that both start with "Bulborb" at the top, but I generally think in a linear manner, so having one introduced in 4 with two 2 ones on the side is less favourable to me. <span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif">[[User:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">Deeb1324354657</span>]] ([[User_talk:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">talk</span>]])</span> 20:22, October 6, 2024 (EDT)

*** I mean, what does the first sentence really add? If anything, it just makes the topic a bit harder to understand, considering its wordiness. I think "What do you think about enemy variants?" with the example in parentheses that Espyo wrote is perfectly fine (perhaps it can say Bulborb variants instead, as Bulborbs appear with variants in more games than Dweevils do, so less-dedicated fans would know more about their variants; the only way someone would not know what this is asking is if they've only played ''Pikmin'', which is unlikely because most newer fans play newer games).

**** The poll could be split up into bosses per area (but the Empress Bulblax kinda messes that up a bit), and there could be some sort of mystical fifth poll with the winners of the other four, to find out which is the best... or maybe not.

* This is my first poll suggestion; how might we go about sorting the options? I know it's not too big of a deal, but I listed them here alphabetically.

* The problem with this question is that there isn't a single definition of what counts as a boss in ''Pikmin''. Different people count different enemies as bosses, so someone looking at the poll could wonder why an enemy they consider to be a boss isn't an option, and someone else could wonder why an enemy they don't consider to be a boss is an option. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 01:27, October 6, 2024 (EDT)
** I just used the list in [[:Category:Pikmin 1 bosses]], but I see how that might be a bit confusing. Looking at the list of enemies right now, here are my thoughts on the ones not listed as bosses:
*** Breadbug: Maybe someone could call this a boss, but I've always just thought of it as a rare enemy. There's only one, but it hardly poses a threat to Pikmin; I doubt many people would think this is one, especially if they know the series well.
*** Bulborb/Fiery Blowhog/Puffy Blowhog/Spotty Bulbear/Water Dumple/Wollyhop/Yellow Wollyhop: All of these enemies are the beefier, tougher ones out of the game's selection, but there are multiple of them wherever they appear, so I'd find it hard to mistake any of them for a boss.
*** Dwarf Bulborb/Dwarf Bulbear/Male Sheargrub/Shearwig: These all have strength in numbers, but definitely couldn't be thought of as bosses due to their small size.
*** Female Sheargrub/Honeywisp/Iridescent Flint Beetle/Wolpole: All of these are harmless or actively serve to help the player, need I say more?
*** Swooping Snitchbug: These are really just nuisances and hardly pose a threat in terms of Pikmin casualties.
*** Pearly Clamclamp: This is really the only one that I could see being thought of as a boss. Aside from the Goolix and Mamuta, it's the only enemy in The Impact Site, and can be fairly threatening. However, there are multiple, so I've never really thought of it as one.
:: Of course, criteria for what people think of as bosses differs from person to person, but I think a general thing is a more difficult enemy that is used sparingly by the devs and always serves to impede the player from reaching what they protect. The Breadbug, a Puffy Blowhog, and a Pearly Clamclamp drop a ship part, but the latter two aren't the only ones of their kind that appear in their areas, and also either can't directly harm Pikmin or can't harm them unless they're directly attacked, which isn't incredibly threatening like a boss should be. This leaves the Breadbug, which I have never lost a single Pikmin to, and even in the instance where Pikmin are in danger of being lost to it, they can be very easily recovered as the Breadbug is dragging whatever they're carrying to its hole. That's the only entry I think could really be perceived as a boss, but its page here considers it an enemy, as does the majority of the community, to my knowledge. I know that list was ''not'' necessary, but I just wanted to comprehensively address the possibility of there being confusion. This obviously won't change anything about the actions of the participants of the poll, but does it make it a bit more acceptable for use?<br>I just realised that the Mamuta might not be collectively thought of as a boss, however, which might cause confusion. <span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif">[[User:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">Deeb1324354657</span>]] ([[User_talk:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">talk</span>]])</span> 11:44, October 6, 2024 (EDT)

* I like this question, but I'm not sure if it would work too well. First off, the three-type limit of Pikmin 4, as well as the differing types between games anyway, would cause this question some trouble. Readers might wonder which game it refers to, considering that some of these options simply aren't possible in the most recent entry of the series. We'd probably have to choose a single game to ask this about, but I don't see a clear one to pick. 1 has less types and 4 obviously has the limit, so those are less viable, but 2 and 3 both have a solid 5 available, with only fairly moderate differences between them. Still, which to choose I wouldn't be able to decide, and I do feel as though we'd be missing out, considering that 4 has more types than any other game. Maybe it'd be interesting to see this done for Pikmin 2, considering that Purples and Whites are rarer than the others, and are all found early on enough where people would have to make this decision in any single playthrough enough times to formulate an opinion? But if we chose any single game, wouldn't that be a bit random-seeming?<br>Sorry if this is a tad scatterbrained. I like this question a fair bit but simultaneously have not much of an idea how to implement it. I often play by planning out exactly what Pikmin types to bring but also sometimes just bring 20 of each type, so I do think this could be an interesting question to think about if the name was changed to ask which squad format you opt for most commonly, among the other suggested changes.<br>I think, if we were to ask, "Which Pikmin squad makeup do you most often choose take with you before a day in ''Pikmin 2''?" (we'd probably edit that to make it a little less wordy or make more sense, but that's at least the premise of my naming suggestion), and then made one option about a planned strategy ("what the wiki suggests", or what I've decided to use for the task I've planned), one about equal quantities of each type ("a full mixture"), your favourite Pikmin type (combination of "what you think is the most useful" and "your favorite Pikmin", as they are fairly similar, at least with how I've interpreted them), possibly one about choosing the ones you have the most of, as that's why I am styling this on Pikmin 2 in general - it'd be interesting to see if it's common for people to avoid using the Candypop types out of fear of losing them - and then maybe one about going with your gut, or any other valid choice that comes to mind; I think if we were to ask that question with those options, then it'd be a fairly well-formatted poll that gives anyone who has played Pikmin 2 something entertaining and interesting to think about, which, at least from what I gather, is the goal of the wiki's polls in general.<br>Oh, I just remembered that you can change the Pikmin you start with, of course, so this should probably explicitly mention that it's talking about the beginning of the day, no?<br>Overall, I like this idea a lot, as it is an interesting thing I think about and seeing the general public's opinion would be pretty nice, so I've tried (probably a bit too hard) to format it in a way that works. Of course, there are probably still some quirks that should be ironed out, but that's my opinion on the poll. I'd love to get some more opinions or feedback on this, if anyone has anything in mind.

** I agree that changing the question to be about the start of the day is a good idea; perhaps it could be "What types of Pikmin do you like to take out of the Onion at the start of the day?". I don't think this poll needs to be about a specific game, as the strategies for choosing types are fairly similar in each game. I interpret "What you think is the most useful" to be more about choosing the types that are likely to be the most useful for the tasks in that day, while I interpret "Your favorite Pikmin" to be more about favorite types in general, so I think it's useful to have both options, but perhaps they could be reworded to make them more clearly distinct. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 04:14, March 19, 2025 (EDT)

The names of the stage types may be unofficial, but I think the names are good descriptions, though some are not the only way the stage type could be described. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 05:56, September 21, 2025 (EDT)

==''Close to You'' featured the first direct depiction of humans in the ''Pikmin'' series. What are your thoughts?==
* I think they're a welcome addition.
* I don't think they fit the series.
* I preferred them shown indirectly.
* I don't have much of an opinion.

# (Nominator:) Now that [[Close to you]] has been released fully on YouTube, and it has been some time since, I think it's fitting to have a poll asking people's thought on humans directly popping up in the franchise. The answers probably needs rewording, but I think these 4 types work for the time being. &ndash; '''[[User:Chazmatron|Chazmatron, signing off!]]''' [[User talk:Chazmatron|(TALK)]] 16:33, 28 October, 2025

* I like the idea of a poll like this, but I don't think asking about the first 5 stages in Collect Treasure! specifically would work very well, because these are not the only Collect Treasure! stages, and these stages are also in Battle Enemies!. I think a better poll with the same options would be "Which of the first 5 Mission Mode stages in ''Pikmin 3'' is your favorite?". This would include Collect Treasure! and Battle Enemies!, and I think asking just about the first 5 stages is OK because they're in both modes and they're the stages unlocked by default. I don't think a poll asking about all Collect Treasure! stages would work, as there are too many stages for a poll. Should this poll be changed to this? &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 08:46, March 22, 2026 (UTC)

* After the title-change: this could have quite varied answers, given that it includes both CT and BE versions of the stage. &ndash; '''[[User:Chazmatron|Chazmatron, signing off!]]''' [[User talk:Chazmatron|(TALK)]] 20:40, 26 March, 2026 (GMT)
